Mural Project Finished

We had a final day of painting out at Melissa's house.  The mural is finished and wouldn't you know it... I forgot my camera.  I snapped these with my phone so I'd have something to show you.






There are five lady bugs hidden in the foliage and several butterflies that are a little easier to find.  Eva asked how I was making the small yellow flowers on the left side and didn't really believe me when I told her. So when I did the blue flowers, I showed her how you load the brush with lots of paint and color to create the flower petals.

Melissa and her family are simply delightful!  Her baby was born in December and I got to meet her on this last trip out.  A beautiful, healthy girl!  I'm ever so grateful to all of them for letting me splash, sponge, finger paint, dab, smoosh, roll and brush paint on their walls.

Melissa said she'd take photo's and email them to me... or I'll take better shots when I go back out to do her older daughter's room.  That one is going to be a LOT of fun, but I'm only going to give you one hint on the subject:  Think baby sea turtles!
